Urinary System Mcq Questions Questions
Question 1 of 5
Stamped trial' is associated with
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: STAMPEDE' trial (Systemic Therapy in Advancing or Metastatic Prostate cancer) tests treatments (e.g., ADT + docetaxel) prostate-specific. Renal cell trials (e.g., CheckMate) focus immunotherapy distinct. Bladder cancer uses other protocols (e.g., BCG) unrelated. Prostate focus distinguishes STAMPEDE, key to its landmark status, unlike renal or bladder studies.
Question 2 of 5
Which of the following intravesical agents least commonly causes cystitis?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Gemcitabine least causes cystitis better tolerated intravesically, less irritative than anthracyclines or alkylators. Doxorubicin, mitomycin, and epirubicin (similar class) frequently irritate bladder chemical cystitis common. Gemcitabine's milder profile distinguishes it, critical for patient comfort in NMIBC, unlike irritative agents.
Question 3 of 5
The most common cause of Obstructive Uropathy is
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: BPH (benign prostatic hyperplasia) is the top cause of obstructive uropathy enlarged prostate blocks bladder outflow, common in aging men. Posterior urethral valve is pediatric congenital. Neurogenic bladder disrupts control less obstructive. Urethral stricture narrows less frequent. BPH's prevalence distinguishes it, key to adult obstruction, unlike child, neuro, or stricture causes.
Question 4 of 5
Screening tests for Cushing Syndrome all except
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Serum ACTH isn't a screening test for Cushing's differentiates cause (pituitary vs. adrenal) post-diagnosis. Late-night salivary cortisol, low-dose dexamethasone suppression, and dexamethasone-CRH screen hypercortisolism detect excess. ACTH's diagnostic role distinguishes it, key to etiology, not initial screening, unlike cortisol-based tests.
Question 5 of 5
Regarding adolescent Varicocele: indications for surgery include all except
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Grade III varicocele alone isn't a surgical indication size doesn't mandate unless symptomatic (e.g., atrophy). Left atrophy (volume loss), bilateral atrophy, and abnormal semen (fertility risk) justify repair functional impact. Grade III's lack of standalone need distinguishes it, critical for evidence-based intervention, unlike atrophy or semen-based triggers.
